Rekt Drinks partnered with NFT marketplace OpenSea to launch its limited-edition flavour, “Ship Rekt.” The collaboration, which represents the brand’s third beverage release following Liquidated Lime and Abstract Apple, was executed through an NFT drop in which 7,500 tokens were offered at a fixed price of 0.029 ETH each. Each NFT is redeemable for a 24-pack of Ship Rekt—a grapefruit and raspberry-flavoured sparkling water—thereby integrating product distribution with digital asset ownership. The project demonstrates a merging of physical beverage distribution with blockchain-based authentication and consumer engagement.
In addition to product redemption, the NFT holders received supplementary incentives, including reward points such as OpenSea XP, Abstract XP, and Rekt DRANK points, which contribute to the broader Rekt Rewards ecosystem. The NFT drop not only facilitated the release of a new flavour but also raised a total of approximately 217.5 ETH, and the sale reportedly concluded within 17 minutes, indicating strong market demand. This initiative exemplifies a strategic model where a traditional consumer product is enhanced through digital and blockchain technology, providing a novel approach to brand engagement and distribution.
